Nah I fucked with damn near everything from Luda...

Only a few in the game were as versatile as Luda, plus he actually made rap fun...

Carharts and hoodies are cool, but shit throw a pie or somthing...

Word of Mouf was the first cd I bought with my own money...

He was Busta Rhymes good in his prime, good for 16's bars and features but has never made that great albums to me. Plus their animation takes alot away from them imo.

To me Luda's music has little to no replay value

Luda is a itunes rapper, meaning if you have him on your itunes it's gonna be his singles. He isn't a artist who's good work is the non-singles like the truly great artist imo.

I think it's harder to make a single than to make some non-single joints, but I get what you saying...

The nigga sold like 20 mill or something...Mostly on his affability and shit, but still good music...

In his prime was a very good Rapper no question about that at all

Even though the Animated/Comedy/Gimmick Rap isn't my cup of tea at all and not something i enjoy listening to or have the urge to listen to just based on personal taste he still was good at what he did as far as his lane of Comedy/Animated Rap

He trying his best not to blatently hate on Luda but it is quite obvious it seems like undercover hate what Usmarin saying about the Animated Rap i agree with but if it was a reverse scanerio and

Someone stated all Jay Z Raps about is selling coke and money and it gets boring real fast no replay value and Jay Z is just a decent 16 Bar Rapper or good for a feature can you imagine how sensitive he would get?

Instead of praising Luda for what he is very good at as far as his lane but saying that particular style of Rap is not what i like he had to get on some undercover hating shit but is hypocritical if people express their views about Jay Z

I thought Luda had some good joints and he even had a hit single last year with that "My Chicks Bad" joint. He was just too comedic and his flow didn't change much. With all that gangsta shit abound, you would think that wasn't a bad thing but he came across kinda corny at times. I remember hearing Luda for the first time on Timbaland first album back in 98. The Fat Rabbit track. He did make solid albums though. I had him in the same lane as Red Man but red man got grimey when he wasn't playing around.

Ludacris was elite. He didn't just shine on his singles, as his album cuts were equally impressive... at least his first 3 albums. He just got caught up in trying too hard to do what once came easy to him. He and/or Joe Budden would've been good additions to Rocafella or G-Unit.

i think in an authentic battle jay would get murked...on the real only thing jay got over luda imo is money and to me when it comes to hiphop $ is more symbolism than an actual attribute when it comes to spitting.
